    LEGISLATIVE AND TECHNOLOGY UPDATE Ms. Platt, OKI Staff, said that the Senate is in session; the House is in recess and will return on Tuesday, May 16. Many of you have probably heard that a $1.2 trillion spending bill agreement was reached last Friday that will keep the government funded through the end of September. This was the first significant bipartisan measure passed by Congress  since President Trump  took office.  The deal puts an additional $15 billion toward  the  president’s  planned military  buildup  and  $1.5  billion more  for  border  security.  Funding  for domestic programs important to regional councils such as TIGER grants were maintained at current levels.   As you have no doubt heard by now, the Trump administration released a tax reform “plan” that filled just one side of a single sheet of paper. Which is to say, the plan is light on details. Aside from the elimination of some  tax  deductions,  the  only  other  offset  mentioned  is  a  one‐time  tax  on  overseas  earnings,  or repatriation.  Repatriation  funding  has  long  been  considered  the  primary  way  to  pay  for  a  significant 

  • 2 | P a g e   

    infrastructure investment. But don’t get too excited as the new tax plan did not mention a specifically tie repatriation to infrastructure. 

    TECHNOLOGY  

    Ms. Platt, OKI Staff, May is National bike month and I found this video on YouTube that may inspire you to take a bike ride this weekend. This features a professional mountain biker Kelly McGarry who is riding with a gopro camera attached to his helmet. Don’t try this at home.  

    PRESENTATION ON RED BIKE Mr. Jason Barron, Cincy Red Bike, provided an update on Red Bikes around the region. Red Bike is the region's  Bike  Share  program with  56  stations  in  Cincinnati,  Covington, Newport,  and Bellevue. He  also mentioned that Red bike is thinking about electric assist bikes (E‐bikes) since Cincinnati/NKY is so hilly. Red Bike is a convenient, low cost, healthy and green transportation system. It is designed for short, point‐to‐point  trips, and will add to  the urban vitality of  the city while  increasing mobility  for  residents, workers, students, and visitors. Red Bike is fun and provides a different perspective of the city for riders. He mentioned he would be interested in feedback and also curious as to what communities would like to see when using a Red Bike. Different committee members provided ideas; scavenger hunt with prizes, child care or child carrying bikes for riders; transit use from Red Bike to bus stops/streetcar stops. Mr. Barron thanked OKI for their help with networking of stations to the area as was made possible through OKI funding awards. 

    PRESENTATION ON OKI GIS BIKE MAP APP Mr. Flessner, OKI Staff, gave a presentation on OKI’s bike map app. He gave a demonstration of how to use this new app and the features available.  FY 2018‐2021 TIP ADMINISTRATIVE MODIFICATION #1 Mr. Reser, OKI Staff, said at the request of SORTA, Administrative Modification #1 is a minor change to the description and FTA ALI code for PID #90060.  In the TIP transit table, the full description was not visible.  The revised description is “Capital Park & Ride/Transit Centers”.  The revised FTA ALI code is “11.33.04”.    Mr.  Busofsky  moved  to  recommend  approval  of  TIP  Administrative  Modification  #1.  Mr.  Brazina seconded the motion, motion carried.   

    FY 2018‐2021 TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM/AMENDMENT #1 Mr. Reser, OKI Staff, said that amendment #1 includes one transit project, TANK Bus Replacements in FY2018 using SNK funds.  This project was overlooked when assembling the transit table for the new FY2018‐2021 TIP,  as adopted  last month.    The amendment  corrects  that omission. As with any TIP action that adds or deletes a project, it is considered an Amendment and goes through Amendment public participation procedures.  It was sent to our Interagency Consultation Group for comments and was posted on our website for public comments since April 26th.   No comments were received.  Mr.  Gardocki  moved  to  recommend  to  OKI  Executive  Committee  approval  of  Resolution  2017‐17 Concerning Amendment #1 of the Fiscal Years 2018‐2021 Transportation Improvement Program. Mr. Busofsky seconded the motion, motion carried.

     OTHER BUSINESS Mr.  Parker  announced  Thursday, May  11  the  public  service  recognition  ceremony will  be  held  on Fountain Square after the Board meeting. She encouraged everyone to attend as OKI President T.C. Rogers will be presenting the awards to the nominees.   Mr. Fausz announced that immediately following ICC the Ohio CMAQ workshop will be held.  Mr. Fausz reminded committee members that ICC membership forms are due to Regina Fields by May 22nd.  Mr. Gardocki mentioned  that METRO  is holding  ten community outreach  sessions  throughout Hamilton County to get public feedback on its proposed service improvement plans for the region’s bus system. You can find more information at www.go‐metro.com  PUBLIC COMMENT None.  NEXT MEETING The next meeting of the ICC is scheduled for Tuesday, June 6, 2017 in the OKI Board Room at 9:30 a.m.  ADJOURNMENT A motion was made by Mr. Gardocki and seconded by Mr. Kelly to adjourn the meeting at 10:20 a.m., motion carried.                               _______________________________                 Andy Reser                 TIP MANAGER /rmf 05/10/17

    A. President’s Report

    • Public Service Recognition Awards

    President Rogers invited members to attend the 29th annual celebration for the Greater

    Cincinnati Public Service Recognition Awards Ceremony at noon on Fountain Square. He thanked

    those who submitted nominees.

    C. Executive Director’s Report

    Mr. Policinski reported that a couple of interesting reports were placed at the back table for

    information. The first is the cover story from the Lane Report regarding Amazon’s decision to

    build a $1.5 billion Prime Air hub at CVG. He stated that the article also includes interesting

    information about logistics in Kentucky. The other is from the Inland Waterways Report which

    highlights CORBA and OKI’s development of the CORIS app.

    Mr. Policinski reported that on June 27, a very important meeting will be held at OKI for those

    members from Northern Kentucky regarding the SHIFT program. He explained that this is the

    new data-driven program for evaluating projects to be included in KYTC’s six-year plan. He stated

    that there is $6 billion in investment included in the current plan, however, there are only enough

    funds available to cover about a tenth of those projects. The new data-driven process will help

    prioritize the projects to be funded. Mr. Policinski urged the Northern Kentucky representatives

    to attend in order to provide their input. The suggested list of projects will ultimately go to the

    legislature for approval.

    Mr. Policinski stated that the NARC annual conference will be held in June. He reported that

    Travis Miller was singled out by NARC staff to present the forestry project which incorporates the

    use of trees in stormwater management.

    D. Legislative Update

    Ms. Lorrie Platt, Staff, reported Summer Jones of the OKI staff is going to be recognized today on

    Fountain Square as part of the Public Service Recognition ceremony. Ms. Jones received a round

    of applause.

    Ms. Platt reported that the Senate is in session and the House is in recess and will return on

    Tuesday, May 16. She reported that our government did not shut down and is open for business

    until the end of September. She explained that this was the first significant bipartisan measure

    passed by Congress since President Trump took office.

    Ms. Platt stated that she has highlighted two areas that have received the most dollars—an

    additional $15 billion toward the president’s planned military buildup and $1.5 billion more for

    border security. She stated that there was talk about cutting funding for domestic programs such

    as TIGER grants, however it was maintained at its current levels, which is $500 million.

    Ms. Platt stated that in the past, she has shared that states have taken matters in their own hands

    regarding funding for their roads and infrastructure by raising their state gas tax. She reported

    that the latest state is California. Effective November 1, 2017, the gas tax will be raised by 12

    cents per gallon (43% increase). That puts their total gas tax about 57 cents per gallon when you

    include the federal gas tax of 18.4 cents. The diesel tax will be raised from 16 cents to 36 cents

    per gallon. In addition, beginning in 2020, electric vehicle owners will pay a $100 annual fee in

    lieu of gas taxes. Traditional vehicle registration will also increase $25 to $175 depending on the

    value of the vehicle. The money will be split 50-50 between state and local projects and $7 billion

  • 5

    over the first 10 years will go to mass transit projects. Annually, the new taxes and fees will raise

    $5.2 billion.

    Mr. Portune asked Ms. Platt to keep the committee informed of any information regarding TIGER

    grants. He reported that Hamilton County is actively pursuing grants for the last element of the

    Fort Washington Way reconstruction project, which involves the construction of decks over the

    interstate.

    E. Finance Officer's Report

    Ms. Purcy Nance, staff, reported that the Finance Officer’s Report was distributed around the

    table. She explained that the report is on the financial statements for the period ended March

    31, 2017 and includes current cash information.

    Ms. Nance referred members to page 2 for the current information. As of May 5, OKI had

    $266,296 in the PNC checking account, $15,198 in the HSA/FSA checking account and $553,874

    in the STAR Ohio money market mutual fund. She reported that there has been no recent activity

    on OKI’s line of credit and there is no outstanding balance at report date.

    Ms. Nance stated that page 3 contains the balance sheet as of March 31. She reported that Cash

    and Investments are up 19% from this time last year. Receivables are down from this time last

    year due to completion of the Bright 74 Study and timing of routine invoices. Ms. Nance reported

    that as of March 31, there were $424,000 in receivables, all associated with February and March

    invoices. She further stated that payables are down 14% from this time last year due to the timing

    of routine invoices.

    Ms. Nance stated that Revenue information is located on page 4. She reported that as of March

    31, OKI is 75% of the way through the budgeted year. Overall, revenues are at 67%, which is

    under budget. She noted the following items: Federal revenues are behind budget due to the

    timing of New Freedom pass through project activities; State revenues are behind budget due to

    the timing of the Boone County study; Local revenues are ahead of budget due to the timing of

    county funding payments; Miscellaneous revenues are ahead of budget due to the timing of OKI’s

    annual meeting; and Contributed Services are behind budget due to timing of FTA projects and

    the seasonal nature of the RideShare and Clean Air outreach campaigns.

    Ms. Nance stated that page 5 contains Expense information. She reported that Overall Expenses

    are at 65%, which is under budget. Ms. Nance noted the following items: Category 3, Travel,

    Subsistence and Professional Development is behind budget due to timing professional

    development activities and Board travel activities; Category 4, Printing, Marketing and

    Contractual is behind budget due to the timing of the Boone County study, travel model data

    purchase and RideShare and Clean Air outreach activities; and Category 6, Contributed Services

    is behind budget due to the timing of FTA projects and the seasonal nature of the RideShare and

    Clean Air outreach campaigns.

  • 6

    Ms. Nance stated that page 6 contains the General Fund Balance information. She reported that

    the General Fund Balance has had a net increase of approximately $128,000 year to date. She

    explained that the two components of this increase are timing differences and year to date

    activities. The timing differences include a $169,000 increase due to timing of county funding

    payments and a $90,000 decrease due to application of negotiated fringe and indirect rates. The

    remaining $49,000 increase is associated with year-to-date operations and timing of active

    projects, resulting in a year to date fund balance of $1,222,000; of this amount, $188,000 is

    committed to active projects.

    Mr. Simms-Howell asked everyone to turn to page 2 and note that OKI has $0 balance on the line

    of credit and no long-term debt. He thanked the OKI leadership for “running a tight ship”.

    There being no discussion, Mr. Reed moved that the Executive Committee accept and file the

    Finance Officer’s Report dated May 11, 2017. Mr. Portune seconded the motion; motion carried.

    ITEM #2: BUDGET COMMITTEE UPDATE

    Mr. Reed reported that the Budget Committee met prior to the Executive Committee meeting

    for the presentation of next year’s budget. He stated that the Budget Committee adopted the

    budget, which will be sent to the Board with a request for approval at the June 15 meeting. He

    explained that the budget will take effect July 1. He announced that the budget is sound and

    balanced and there is no proposed increase to local county contributions. The local contributions

    have remained at the same level for 19 years.

    ITEM #3: MARKETING FOR THE RIDESHARE PROGRAM

    Ms. Summer Jones, Staff, explained that RideShare continues to help commuters in the area find

    alternative forms of transportation and relieve congestion on the roadways. Recently, OKI

    collaborated with the seven other MPOs in Ohio to upgrade the ridematching and trip planning

    platform. The statewide program will be more user friendly and interactive and will allow

    commuters to plan efficient and cost-effective routes and log miles.

    Ms. Jones explained that there are two parts of this resolution. The first part is the authority to

    enter into contracts with vehicle providers not to exceed the amount of $96,000 for the vanpool

    program. She explained that the vanpool program is crucial to removing single-occupant vehicles.

    RideShare subsidizes a portion of the capital cost of the van to make vanpooling a cost-effective

    alternative for commuters rather than driving along.

    Ms. Jones explained that the second part of the resolution gives the Executive Director authority

    to enter into agreements exceeding $30,000. This will allow staff to move forward with this

    program in a timely, cost-effective manner. The funding for this program is included in OKI’s work

    program and has been approved by ODOT, KYTC and FHWA.

  • 7

    Mr. Portune moved that the Executive Committee approve Resolution 2017-14 regarding the

  • RESOLUTION 2017‐20  FY 2018‐2021 TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM/AMENDMENT #2 

  • AMENDMENT #2 OF THE OKI FISCAL YEARS 2018‐2021 TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM 

      DESCRIPTION:  The  attached  exhibit,  in  resolution  form,  describes  the  specific 

    revision proposed.  BACKGROUND:  OKI  is  responsible  for preparing biennially a  four‐year program of 

    projects  in  this  region  that will make use of available Federal‐Aid Highway funds and Federal Transit Administration funds. Inclusion in this program is a prerequisite for such federal assistance. Because the scope, cost, and timing of the included projects are subject to periodic  change,  and  because  new projects  are  continually  being developed,  the  TIP  is  formally  amended  several  times  a  year,  as needed. 

       The amendment reflected in the proposed resolution includes three 

    highway  projects  in  Ohio.  The  TIP  is  periodically  amended,  as needed, to reflect additions, deletions or revisions to programmed projects.   

       Prior  to  presentation  to  the  Board  of  Directors,  the  proposed 

    amendment is reviewed by staff and presented to the Intermodal Coordinating Committee. The Intermodal Coordinating Committee considers  the  issue,  and  makes  a  recommendation  to  Board  of Directors. 

     AUTHORITY:  23 CFR, §450.324.  FUNDING:  The  fiscally  constrained  items  proposed  for  amendment  have  an 

    associated  funding  amount  and  source  specified.  Staff  has determined that there is adequate funding available, or anticipated to  be  available,  and  the  funding  amounts  are  shown  in  year  of expenditure figures for these projects. 

     ACTION RECOMMENDED:  Adoption of Resolution OKI 2017‐20.  EXHIBIT:  Resolution  (OKI  2017‐20)  Concerning  Amendment  #2  of  the  OKI 

    Fiscal Years 2018‐2021 Transportation Improvement Program.

      WHEREAS, the Intermodal Coordinating Committee (ICC), as the technical advisory committee to OKI, has reviewed and recommended the projects listed in the resolution and recommend that they be added/amended into the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP); and  

      WHEREAS, all  federally  funded transit and highway projects  in  the Ohio Counties of Butler, Clermont, Hamilton and Warren, the Kentucky Counties of Boone, Campbell and Kenton and the Indiana County of Dearborn must be included in the TIP prior to the expenditure of federal funds and be listed with year of expenditure dollars; and 

      WHEREAS, the amendments are consistent with the OKI 2040 Regional Transportation Plan as  amended on October 13, 2016 and the OKI Regional ITS Architecture adopted on September 8, 2016; and 

      WHEREAS,  all  projects  included  in Amendment  2  –  Fiscal  Years  2018‐2021  Transportation Improvement Program are exempt from transportation conformity requirements for air quality; and 

    WHEREAS,  the  opportunity  for  public  participation  has  been  provided  per  OKI’s  Public Participation Plan; and
